INGLIS FIREFIGHTERS
Campfire Safety
-
Clear the area around your campfire of all
debris for at least one metre.
Never use gasoline to start a campfire. An
explosion will result.
Use your campfire only for cooking or warmth
and keep your campfire small.
Never leave your campfire unattended.
NEVER leave children unattended or playing
near a campfire.
Keep a ready supply of water nearby.
Stop adding wood to the fire well before leaving
the site, let the fire burn down, spread the
remains evenly in the fire pit, and slowly add
water and stir.
We would like to thank the community for all their help
on the day of and since Bob and Linda’s devastating
house fire… There were so many people that lent a
hand that day, it reconfirmed what a great place to live
Inglis really is.
A Special thank you to the staff at Inglis School and
Kid’s First ELC for supporting and explaining the
situation to our kiddos and confirming that everything
was alright.
Last, but definitely NOT least ~ The Inglis Fire
Department… Thank you so much for the dedicated
efforts that day, a department like ours is something to
be very proud of!

The Asessippi Cemetary is basically a community
cemetary. Back in the early 1980’s a group of people
who had connections to the cemetery formed a
committee to look after the up keep of the cemetary.
We were concerned that in time there may be no one to
look after maintenance and upkeep. The group sent out
letters to all relatives of people who were buried there
explaining our plan to start a fund through donations of
family members and anyone else who wished to donate.
This fund would be invested and used to pay someone
to cut the grass and for maintenance purposes, we still
gratefully accept donations. The core group still had
cemetary day once a year in spring to do things like
leveling and filing sunken graves, lift head stones that
had sunken or tilted, trim trees, etc. As the 30 plus
years have passed our group has continued to age and
many have passed on, so we find ourselves with a small
number of people, most in their 80’s and 90’s left to do
this work. Quiet a number of people have come to rest
in the Asessippi Cemetary since we started our
committee so we would like to invite community
members who have a loved one there or think perhaps
one day you may like this beautiful spot to be your final
resting place to come and join us in our annual clean up
day June 11, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. Your help is greatly
appreciated.

Show starts at 9 pm
The executive of this committee is Doreen Mench,
Marilyn Liske and Brad Robin, if you have any
questions please feel free to call anyone of us.
On April 30, 2012 we experienced the power,
professionalism, passion and commitment of our Inglis
Fire Department.
~ It is with deepest gratitude that we say Thank You~
With sincere appreciation we would like to thank
everyone for their thoughtful gifts and well wishes. Too
often we underestimate the power of touch, a smile, a
kind work or a listening ear, all which have the
potential to turn lives around.
And to our children and grandchildren we love and
cherish you, Thank you.
Sincerely,
Bob & Linda Jordan

Free Training Available!
Over the past year, an Older Workers program has been offering free training to unemployed individuals between the
ages of 55-64. Learning new skills is the focus of the program and it has been designed to assist eligible individuals
reach their employment goals.
Originally contracted for a one year period from April 11, 2011 to March 31, 2012 the project has recently received
word that additional funding will allow for programming to extend until March 31, 2014. Older Workers programs
are currently running across Canada under the title of “Targeted Initiative for Older Workers” programs.
Locally, the project is entitled, “Employment AdvantAGE” and is offered in Russell. Amy Kostuik is the
Coordinator of this program and indicates that it has been well received within the region. “Participants have been
attending the program from Birtle, St. Lazare, Rossburn, Angusville, Russell, Waywayseecappo and Binscarth. In
addition to offering free training, participants are provided with a training allowance which helps offset the costs
associated with travelling to and from the program.”
Sessions will be offered throughout the year and anyone interested in joining are encouraged to call to find out more
information. Each session runs for 7 weeks. Training offered includes; Computer Training, First Aid & CPR,
WHMIS & Safety Training, Food Safe, Customer Service and much more. Time is also spent in determining
individual goals and how their skills link to the local labour market. Amy states, “It is important to look at each
individual’s goals and help them to achieve them, where one person may be looking for full-time work, others may
be considering self employment or working on a part-time basis. It is really up to each individual to determine what
works best for them; I am here to support individuals in reaching their unique goals.” She adds, “The learning
environment is very comfortable and relaxed, which is important to individuals that may not have taken training for
some time. Each group has a maximum capacity of 5 participants which makes for a pleasant group atmosphere.”
Employment AdvantAGE is an initiative of Parkwest Regional Employment Development Corporation. Funding is
provided by The Government of Canada and The Manitoba Government.
If interested, people are encouraged to call Amy to get further information. She may be reached at (204) 773-3632.

Hummingbirds – Facts
-
-
-
Hummingbirds flap their wings 50 to 200 times
per second. Generally the faster time is in
courtship.
They can fly up, down, right, left, backwards,
upside down and even loop-de-loops! Amazing!
They eat every 10 minutes throughout the day.
Even though they are tiny birds, they consume
up to 50% of their body weight in a day
Hummingbirds have very good memories and
will even be able to remember where they found
food from the previous year.
Hummingbirds can fly up to 25-30 mph!
Hummingbirds average lifespan is 3-6years
A new business was opening, and one of the owner’s
friends sent flowers for the occasion. But when the owner
read the card with the flowers, it said. “Rest in Peace”
The owner was little upset and called the florist to
complain. After he had told the florist about the obvious
mistake, the florist said, “Sir, I’m really sorry for the
mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should
imagine this: Somewhere there is a funeral taking place
today, and they have flowers with a note saying,
“Congratulations on your new location.”
